's there a reason you're trying to talk to me on that thing?

So like, welcome to the family. I'm like, Ini Miney, and like, the boy is named, umm. Hurricane. There's another kid, but it's totally like, a fake, and you can just like, ignore it.

I was about to go to the store.

[He's pretty sure the boy isn't named "Hurricane". He has never heard that word before.]

What, really? That's like, weird, 'cause I totally woke up another time and went to the kitchen and there was like tons of bread everywhere so I brought it all down and like, ate it all when I woke up, so I don't see how we can be out . . . of . . .

. . . Duh. Times. Different times. . . . Geez, I should've figured that out myself. The lawyer looks like a hobo and that woman is still alive. Huh, I'm still alive. I swear, being Ini kills off at least 100 brain cells a day.

Huh? So that's not like, your last name? Anyway, I can't like, call you a number, so you're gonna be like, Edsdad then.
